I personally think we should remove all plastic packaging from fresh fruit and veg having a counter in each store that serves the fruit and veg where people have to bring reuseable containers that are sold by the stores for each product so cereal for instance there’s places in the world and even in this country where by the cereal is in a dispenser that only lets let’s say 400g of cereal in to the container and with that the price is set per gram and by rights it should mean product costs should be able to drop as packaging is one cost that is passed on to us no packaging where we bring our own means we are reusing a lot and also if you mess up a letter instead of throwing the paper in the bin use it for taking notes use the spare space and once you’ve used it all compost it then the fact we are being made to by newer cars every 5 years due to laws the government are putting in that needs to stop and people need to be made to maintain vehicles better servicing should become mandatory and should be done six months apart from the mot test or road worthiness anual test most countries have in place one major issue with vehicles causing pollution is simply due to the throw away society we live in if a car isn’t worth much it won’t be fixed allowing the engine not to run at its best causing hirer pollution and these electric cars are more damaging too the earth you will all soon see that it’s proven that the production of electric cars is the larges damaging thing we have ever done too the planet the amount of the earth we have mined so far and will carry on mining is stupid we need too stop and look at everything we are doing as everything is completely wrong

Even if the western world abolished the use of plastic, the entirety of Asia won’t. Vote with your wallet people, don’t buy from multi nations (especially nestle) and buy local.
